The Denver Broncos are piling on points the way people pile on pounds during the holiday party circuit. And that does not bode well for the Jacksonville Jaguars.

The Broncos are 28-point favorites over the Jaguars for their matchup this coming weekend in the Mile High City, tying the largest spread in NFL history. The Baltimore Colts were also 28-point favorites when they took on the expansion Atlanta Falcons in 1966. The Falcons covered.
